Builder's Dilemma

Acceptance of inevitable destruction.

When you know that something is inevitably going to ruin what you have done, but you do it anyway for whatever reason you may have.

A builder knows what they build won't last forever, regardless they build. Maybe it's for money, maybe it's for love, maybe they build just for the sake of it, nevertheless they do it anyway.
"Mark built a sandcastle even though he knew a wave will just wash it off at some point. One can say he had the Builder's Dilemma in mind, a Sandcastle Mentality even."

builder's remorse

When a corporation or institution (museum, university), signs off on the creation of a new building for itself, usually designed by a "starchitect", convinced that this new "home" will bestow prestige, success, and street-cred among its associates, patrons, and even its rivals. Occurrence usually coincides with various economic "bubbles" where cash seems to be overflowing everywhere. (See also: "Irrational Exuberance")
"Now that Time Warner has officially divorced itself from AOL, don't you think they have at least a bit of builder's remorse for that huge hunk of new rock in Manhattan?"

"The Bilbao? Yeah, it's cool looking, but in this economy I'll bet the Guggenheim gang is feeling some mean builder's remorse."
